Diving into Deductibles: Untangling the Complexity of Health Insurance Pricing

Deductibles are an important, yet often misunderstood factor in the American health insurance system. I recently got asked a question from someone wondering if we truly have our health insurance if it doesn't kick in until our deductible is paid. That’s why this week on The Amplify OT Podcast, I am breaking down the reasons deductibles are incorporated into our health insurance plans!
